I have a table in DB and it is approx 90 GB in space. I tried to count no of rows in the table
select count(idNewsNotification) from notification
and it resulted <
This is not a good one, in some cases.
For InnoDB tables, the row count is only a rough estimate used in SQL optimization. (This is also true if the InnoDB table is partitioned.)
TEST:
I have the same db (dumped and imported on different server) both innoDB
Same table:
Server One: 49,231
Server Two: 53,242
49231 is not correct and You can see this table with "~" mark in phpmyadmin
